Fettercairn Warehouse 2 Batch #4
Details
The fourth release in The Collection, Warehouse 2 Batch No.004 has been crafted using a handpicked selection of first and second fill American and Hungarian oak casks; filled with spirit that flowed from the Fettercairn stills in 2014 and has since been maturing in Fettercairn Warehouse 2.
It is a rare and remarkable single malt shaped by its maturation in its own unique dunnage environment and then crafted through the expert combination of three different cask types to reveal a whisky of distinctive character – one displaying the wonderful Fettercairn house-style that is abundant with tropical flavours and soft spice.
